BREAKING HABITS:
arkansas's Premier
hip-hop
& streetdance collective
Officially established in 2005, our organization's vision is to empower and inspire all driven individuals of all backgrounds, walks of life, and interests in order to make a positive impact in Northwest Arkansas and beyond...
Our MISSION
Our mission and what we truly believe is that all individuals possess innate, unique talents and 'superpowers,' that can ultimately be unleashed through true Hip-hop culture and other aligned disciplines.
To demonstrate our mission and vision, over the past several years, we have led and participated in various after school youth programs, community festivals, dance and empowerment workshops, and other culturally diverse events.
However, the one type of event that completely embodies the essence of what we stand for is the proverbial Hip-hop “jam.” A jam is effectively a congregation of practitioners and/or advocates of the four elements of Hip-hop culture (i.e. DJing, Emceeing, Breakin’, and Graffiti.)
If one were to attend a jam, they would likely be completely entranced by the sheer soul thumping music and sounds of individuals and crews fervently expressing and competing within their Hip-hop element through categorical battles, exhibitions, and freestyle “cyphers.”
We have officially hosted six jams to date that have garnered participants from all across the United States and we're just getting started!What We Do
Be on the lookout for us!

Our organization has gained significant media attention lately, which is a testament to our hard work and dedication. The crew has been featured on multiple local media outlets, including both TV and radio stations.

We're excited to continue our journey and look forward to updating with more information on our upcoming performances and media appearances.

Friends & Family
Strong Bonds
We share a deep bond that extends beyond the dance floor and we spend a lot of time hanging out and having fun together. This close bond is especially important to us as some of our first-generation members now have families with children who will soon become the next generation of dancers in our crew. We support and encourage each other both on and off the dance floor, and our connection to each other makes our our crew bond strong.
